After a trillion tons of CO2, the Great Barrier Reef hits record coral cover third year in a row

Sixty percent of all human CO2 emissions have been emitted since 1985 but today the corals are healthier than ever

In 1985 humans were emitting only 19.6 billion tons of CO2 each year, and now we emit 37 billion tons. In the meantime AIMS have been dragging divers thousands of kilometers over the reefs to inspect the coral cover. These are the most detailed underwater surveys on the largest reef system in the world, and they show that far from being bleached to hell, the corals are more abundant than we have ever seen them.

As Peter Ridd points out, when the reef was doing badly, AIMS was happy to combine the data on the whole reef, so we could lament its demise. But lately AIMS splits it into separate sections and if Peter Ridd didn’t check the numbers, who would know it was a record across the full 2,300 kilometer length of the reef? And that may ...

Bruce Pardy: Notwithstanding the Charter, Neither Legislatures nor Courts Protect Individual Liberties in Canada

In September, the federal government urged the Supreme Court of Canada to protect rights by limiting the use of the Charter’s “notwithstanding clause.” Two days later, it introduced Bill C-9, the “Combatting Hate Act,” which will infringe upon free speech. The bill does not invoke the notwithstanding clause. It does not need to. The Supreme Court has already done the dirty work by declaring, years ago, that prohibiting “hate speech” is constitutional.

In Canada, who protects individual liberties? Not legislatures. Not courts.

The notwithstanding clause is Section 33 of the Charter. It allows provincial legislatures and Parliament to pass laws that might infringe the rights in Sections 2 and 7 to 15. Invoking the clause prevents courts from striking down the statute as unconstitutional. Activists have long sought to discredit and delegitimize the ...

Mamdani is certainly bad for NYC, but big picture, he might be the best thing possible for Trump/MAGA.

Why? Mamdani is going to give Trump the necessary optics to justify going into NYC and other cities with NG/ICE.

Mamdani personifies the most radical elements of the Left. He is essentially a walking proof that Trump is right about the Democrats and their party’s trajectory.

Mamdani is going to be a walking red-pill machine. He is going to give Trump all the headlines and talking points to justify Trump’s ultimate goal, which is deploying NG/ICE, deporting the illegals, passing voter ID, arresting the treasonous coup-plotters, and saving the Republic.

Mamdani is a gift to Trump and MAGA.
